While wandering the desert, the Israelites were often disobedient. During one such event, God allowed poisonous snakes to bite and sicken them. Then God directed them to place a bronze (?) snake on a pole. When someone was bit, they could look up at the snake and be healed.
Some of the Israelites began to worship the bronze snake so God had it destroyed.
The bronze snake did not originate in hell. The Israelites worship of it certainly was diabolically influenced.
INDEED.
